How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brookside | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WF9 4 | £190,000 | £165,000 +15% since | £101,000 +88% since | £90,000 +111% since | £115,000 +65% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in WF9 4, over the last five years (785 sales):
- What sells: 36% terraced, 36% semi-detached, 19% detached, 5% flats, 4% other.
- 4% sold leasehold, and 11% were new builds.
- 134 sales in the last twelve months, against 215 in the same twelve months five years ago.
